My Train Wreck

Hello… Is anyone still here?

I don’t know about you guys, but its been kinda a rough week. It didn’t start out that way. As a matter of fact, I did well until Friday. Then, this weekend turned into an absolute train wreck. At work we had a “Fun Food Friday” where everyone brings some sort of dish. Usually, its a bunch of finger foods, appetizers, and deserts. While I didn’t have very much, what I had wasn’t good.

My mom came up to visit this weekend too. Friday night, we went to eat at Genghi’s Grill. That was mostly protein, but still had fried rice in it. Not horrible, but by the time I got home, I could already feel my fingers swelling from the sodium. Saturday wasn’t much better. We ate brunch at a local owned diner and then had Applebee’s for dinner. I had a steak and baked potato. Again, not horrible but I should’ve picked a lighter selection. This morning, mom wanted pancakes for breakfast so I made some. Breakfast was 12 points but we ate late so I skipped lunch. Having some gift cards to Red Lobster left over from last weekend, we decided to eat there. I had every intention of getting the Grilled Shrimp and rice, but yet again I gave in to the temptation and got something I shouldn’t have. And there were cheese biscuits again. Not mass quantities, but still.

I’ll be surprised if I lost any weight this week. As a matter of fact, I’m kinda expecting a gain due to all the sodium and water weight. My fingers feel like Vienna sausages right now. I’ll be back on track for sure tomorrow though.

So how’d everybody else’s week go?
